Pros

• Cooling + heating in one unit: Useful for places with warm/hot seasons plus cooler nights; you get one device that handles both.
• Smart control: Ability to use app / voice commands adds convenience. Useful to switch modes or turn it on/off remotely.
• Good match for medium-sized rooms (~330 sq ft): More capacity than small units, so faster cooling and better handling of moderate heat loads.
• Decent efficiency for its class: CEER ~ 11.3 isn’t top-tier but reasonable, especially with smart / heater combo units.
• Lower noise at moderate operation: High mode is noticeable, but lower speeds are more tolerable.
• Useful extra features: Timer, auto-restart (important in areas with power cuts), filter alerts, energy saver mode—these help both comfort and operating cost.
• Modern refrigerant (R-32): More environmentally friendly than some older refrigerants.

Cons

• Heating mode is supplemental: 3,850 BTU of heating is limited — fine for mild cold, but not enough if you need strong heating in very cold weather.
• Power draw when heating is high: In heating mode it uses ~1,260 W, with ~11 A, which adds up in electricity usage.
• Noise still noticeable on high: ~52 dB is okay but in quieter rooms or nights it might still be audible.
• Only 2 fan / cooling speeds: Less flexibility; finer control (low-noise, very low power) is limited.
• Fixed speed compressor (not inverter): Means less efficiency at part load; you’ll lose some efficiency when you don’t need full power.
• May be over-capacity for some smaller rooms: If your room is much smaller than ~330 sq ft, this might be more than needed (waste energy / cost).
• Upfront cost & complexity: Smart units + heating + remote etc. cost more; also installation must ensure window supports unit, proper sealing etc.

Conclusion

The LG LW8023HRSM is a strong option if you want versatile comfort year-round for a medium-sized room and you have stable 115 V power. Its smart / Wi-Fi plus heating make it more flexible than cooling-only units. If you frequently experience both hot days and somewhat cool periods, it gives good value.
